Loved this place

This is by far one of the nicest and well taken care of places we’ve stayed. The furnishings and the kitchen ware were phenomenal. Very impressed. Though, the fire place does not stay lit for more than a minute.

Tree House Views

Lovely mountain home with expansive views of the Smokies. Loved being serenaded with the sounds of the Tuskeegee River as we soaked in the hot tub. The house was clean and welcoming and amazingly spacious. One drawback is the steep drive but it's manageable. Looking forward to another visit!

Great getaway

Nice quiet area and very private. It was nice to sit on the porch and listen to the sounds of nature. Very relaxing. The driveway was a little quirky, but we got used to getting in and out ok without having to turn around.

Nice little place close to town with a great view

The roads are pretty tricky. If you have a large vehicle definitely do not bring a trailer etc. cabin is nice and clean and accommodating. I can’t even hear the music downtown on the weekends.

Nice Cabin

The cabin was better than expected- info book of cabin and local trip ideas, tea, coffee provided, some laundry soap, dish detergent, garbage bags, toilet paper, games. Hot tub was nice but 100deg max temp was a little cool for our liking. Gas Fireplace was nice but didn’t stay lit for more than 10min. The location was close to all the stores. Felt secluded on the deck even though there were neighbors 50+yards away. Driveway was a little difficult at first. Loved that it was pet friendly.

Check in

The process was easy but instructions needs updating. The picture of the lockbox that was sent was not the one on the property. The code did not work on the lockbox that was there. It appears that entry is now keyless.

The Best Location for a Bryson City Weekend

My wife and I came to celebrate my 60th Birthday. I wanted a get away so I googled train vacations NC. The first one that popped up was for the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad out of Bryson City. A 4.5 hour relaxing train ride along the Nantahala River sounded perfect. We found this location on VRBO, along with too many other choices of cabins with hot tubs in the area. We chose Big Oaks because it was the closest to downtown Bryson. The cabin was very nice, beds very comfortable, hot tub was clean and relaxing, however the view of the Smokies was AMAZING. My favorite moment of our stay was while having my morning coffee on the covered patio as I watched a big thunderstorm in the distance on Sunday morning. The Smokies were really smoking !!! The driveway was steep, so be ready for that.

Mountain Getaway

The house was clean and accommodating. We had some issues with a malfunctioning dishwasher and hot tub chemical imbalance, prompting two visits from maintenance over a 4 night stay. But service arrived promptly and was effective. Plus, we were granted 20%, and the customer service was appreciated. Overall, we had a nice time.

Extended weekend getaway

Everything was wonderful. Clean, hot tub all ready for us when we arrived. The driveway to the property was the only thing that was challenging. It was easier to back in then to pull in. View was amazing!

This is a great place for couple or 2 couples. Driveway can be intimidating but manageable. Great view of valley and mountains. Very private and quiet. Large living space with 2 bedrooms and 2 baths. All new appliances. Would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful

We had an amazing stay. The place was clean, easy to drive to, beautiful view, and a short drive to town. If you are looking to go to bed before 10pm on a weekend be prepared to hear the band playing at Bryson City Brewery. We enjoyed the music but someone with young kids might not enjoy the noise. We will definitely be back!
